Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Please can parents & carers be more considerate when parking at the start and end of the school day. We realise that parking is an issue in this area and we have been very lucky not to have had any accidents or incidents involving our children. Yellow zigzag lines outside the main entrance indicate that it is illegal to park there at any time. Our children’s safety comes first and we ask for your co-operation in being considerate, sensible and aware of children at all times. In September we are launching a healthy travel to school programme which we hope will raise awareness for pupils and parents alike.
In the week beginning Monday 3rd July we will be holding a Moving Up week. Y6 pupils will be visiting their high schools at different points during the week (parents/carers should by now have received information from the high schools) and our new Nursery and Reception children will be visiting us.
Our current Reception to Y5 classes will all be ‘moving up’ to their new teachers and classes on Wednesday 5th to Friday 7th. On the morning of Wednesday 5th, all children should come to school through the normal entrance. However, they should be collected at the end of the day from the exit they will use next year e.g. Current Reception children should be picked up from the KS1 doors and current Y2 should be collected from the KS2 doors. All other children will use their normal doors. On Thursday and Friday morning of that week, please drop off and collect the children from their new entrance.
On Monday 10th July and for the rest of the school year, the children will return to their usual entrance and exit doors. We are very excited about these moving up days as it will allow staff and children to get to know each other and will mean that the children settle well in September.
Please can we ask that you apply sun cream to your child before they come to school and send them in with a hat. Only in certain circumstances that have been agreed with Mr Brown or Mrs Brown, we can apply sun cream to your child during the school day.
This is a reminder that if you have not paid for your class trip, please make sure you do by this Friday. If we do not receive enough money, it could result in the trip being cancelled altogether. Please contact the office if you have any problems.
We had a wonderful First Holy Communion on Sunday – the children were an absolute credit to the school. Thank you so much to the communicants, their parents and teachers who have helped them through the Sacramental Programme.
This is a reminder that the Primary School Concert will be taking place tonight at King George’s Hall.
Parents and children need to meet in the foyer at 5.30pm for the concert to start at 6pm.
Nursery places are still available for September 2017! If you know anybody that is interested, please contact the school office or Nursery staff for more information and an application form.
Snack money is due for children in Year 1&2. If payment hasn’t already been made this term, please can we ask that a contribution of £3 is made to the class teachers.
Year 1 and Year 2 children will not be bringing reading books home over the next week whilst we move over to a new scheme. Please send any home reading books that you have at home back to school.
Good luck to all the children taking part in their First Holy Communion on Sunday. Children should be at church no later than 2.15pm for a 2.30pm start.
